It was generally a nice hotel but the one elevator wouldn't go up to the 9th floor which is the one we were on. Also no exhaust fan in the bathroom and the sink leaked. The shower didn't have much of a good spray and was kinda hard to figure out. But we had a good time and stay there otherwise. The breakfast was decent and the lobby was really nice.

Overrun, under staffed…

No one answers the phones. We called multiple times on the way (because the last time we showed up close to midnight they had given our room away despite it being paid for). The air conditioner wouldn’t cool room regardless of how low the temp was set. The room smelled musty. The sheets and bedding were yellowing and just didn’t feel clean. There was no mini refrigerator or microwave, although many other rooms had them. When we did go down to the front desk, the poor guy working was so overwhelmed because he was the only one working in the counter and there were so many people needing him. We were ticketed for parking although no one ever told us we needed to register our car to park in there lots and we never had to on any trip here prior to this. They ticketed us at 11 PM right after we showed up and checked in. We registered our car right away once we knew that you had to register to park, but it would’ve been nice to know that upon check-in. We have to stay at this hotel a few times a year for a sporting event that takes place nearby and it just seems to get worse each time.

Past its prime

The hotel really needs updating. From the so-so mattresses to the worn carpeting in all the rooms, everything is so lackluster. It’s a convenient place for anything near Missouri State University but otherwise, I’d pick somewhere else to stay for the same money.
